Appeal from the District Court of Bottineau County, Northeast Judicial District, the Honorable Michael G. Sturdevant, Judge.
AFFIRMED.
Per Curiam.

State v. Benson
No. 20130179
Per Curiam.
[¶1] Barry Lee Benson appeals from a district court judgment entered following a jury trial in which Benson was found guilty of continuous sexual abuse of a child. Benson argues the district court erred in denying Benson’s motions for acquittal due to insufficient evidence and abused its discretion in allowing the State to present the testimony of a witness over Benson’s objection. We summarily affirm the district court judgment under N.D.R.App.P. 35.1(a)(3) and (4).
